I am 44. #4 is 38. That’s a 6 year age difference. Really, he’s probably too old for me anyway. I’ve always had a preference for younger men. At my age thinking about dating someone who is in his 50’s makes me feel yucky. Feels too old for me.

Over the weekend a friend of mine told me I should date much younger because I had a young spirit, and so I had to find a man who had one too. He thought that 27 would be good for me. First of all, I love him. He’s great. High five. He’s like a great older brother who I never had. Second, if the dude is 27 I’m technically old enough to be his mom, that feels a little yucky.

I have not embraced my inner Cougar. I should. Thanks to my friend who reminded me that the Cougar rule is 1/2 your age + 7. That means my limit is 29.

Date #7 (Civil Servant) is lined up for Saturday. He’s 32. #4 is a fling. Casual. We are free to see whomever we want. If a 32 year old has a hot body and wants to mess around, who am I to say no?
